Resembling the helmet of a Roman centurion, the distant galaxy LEDA 3092152 displays an overwhelming appearance. The further you look, the further you travel into the past, astronomers use this fact to study the evolution of the Universe by observing nearby and more distant galaxies, comparing their characteristics. The Hubble Space Telescope is.....

And there's not even any way voting for Wilders helps the "left behind". Either he gets his way, asks a referendum on exiting the EU, kicks out the migrants and tanks the economy in the process. Or he's frozen out of government and the centrist grand coalition tilts further to the right than it could have been if so many idiots hadn't voted for the fucking far-right.

So….it wasn’t terrorism but rather entitled rich asshats speeding to a (cancelled) concert in their Bentley, with no concern for others or the law, thereby putting two countries on alert and costing both how much money? Their estates should pay for it all.

We’ve had thanksgivings for centuries, but #Thanksgiving arguably became an annual national holiday in the US with Abraham Lincoln’s 1863 Thanksgiving Proclamation.

Twenty-three Thanksgiving stories written between then and 1928 appear in Thanksgiving Day in Modern Story, edited by Minnesota librarian Maud Van Buren and teacher Katharine I. Bemis. The book’s copyright is now older than the annual observance was when it was published. I’m thankful it ends in 39 days. #PublicDomainDayCountdown

«Fortunately, in America there is a body that has a much more convincing claim to represent the common interest: the government. By drafting regulation, it can set the boundaries within which companies like Openai must operate. And, as a flurry of activity in the past month shows, politicians are watching ai. That is just as well. The technology is too important to be left to the whims of corporate plotters.» https://www.economist.com/leaders/2023/11/22/the-fallout-from-the-weirdness-at-openai
